Former India cricketers Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman spoke on Saturday, at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit in New Delhi.
Here are the highlights:
- VVS Laxman (on 281 knock): The situation we were in, there was nothing in my mind.
- VVS Laxman on 281: Realistically, we had no chance to win the Eden Test. We never gave up. It was a miracle.
- VVS Laxman: Adelaide Test win was another miracle. Kolkata win inspired the team.
- My mother-in-law said we will win the Eden Test vs Australia. Never believed her: Sourav Ganguly
- We never realised that we will win the Eden Test vs Australia till the last seven overs: Sourav Ganguly
- The Eden win versus Australia changed Indian cricket. It gave the team a lot of steel: Sourav Ganguly
- My biggest challenge as a captain was to tell either Harbhajan or Kumble that you are not playing: Sourav Ganguly
- Captaincy is not an easy task. You have a lot of answering to do: Sourav Ganguly
- No matter how much I tried, always ended up reading the newspaper: Sourav Ganguly
- The best thing was the boys always thought for good of Indian cricket: Sourav Ganguly
- A good leader identifies match-winners and that's what Sourav Ganguly did: VVS Laxman
- Sourav is emotional and Dhoni is not. That's the only difference between them: VVS Laxman
- India must put runs on the board to win Test matches. That's an area of concern: Sourav Ganguly
- First Test in Brisbane will be important for India. The team is capable of winning: Sourav Ganguly

- Dhoni should stay captain till World Cup. He has his problems as Test skipper: Ganguly
- Lord's win vs England should inspire India in Australia. Team must be consistent. Exciting times ahead: VVS Laxman
